Am          F            C            G
I wrote her off for the tenth time today
Am           F         C             G
And practice all the things I would say
Am            F    C          G
When she came over I lost my nerve
Am          F        C           G
I took her back and made her dessert

Now I know I'm being used
That's okay, man, 'cause I like the abuse
I know she's playing with me
That's okay 'cause I've got no self-esteem

We make plans to go out at night
I wait 'til two, then I turn out the light
This rejection's got me so low
If she keeps it up, I just might tell her so

Chorus:
Dm         A#     F           C
When she's saying oh that she wants only me
Dm      A#              F              C
Then I wonder why she sleeps with my friends
Dm         A#     F            C
When she's saying oh that I'm like a disease
Dm      A#              F           C
Then I wonder how much more I can spend
Dm     A#    F              C
Well I Guess I should stick up for myself
Dm     A#                F           C
But I really think it's better this way
Dm            A#     C             G               F
The more you suffer, the more it shows you really care
       G
Right? Yeah yeah yeah...

Now I'll relate this little bit
It happens more than I'd like to admit
Late at night, she knocks on my door
She's drunk again and looking to score

Now I know I should say no
But it's kind of hard when she's ready to go
I may be dumb, but I'm not a dweeb
I'm just a sucker with no self-esteem
